  • Always a good read
Format: Paperback
The info in this book is so clear and easy to understand. I would recommend his books in a heart beat!

  • The manual you wanted with your 5Diii
Format: Paperback
Great reference to get you started on the basics of the 5Diii as well as the more intricate aspects of its advaced 61 point focusing system. Busch covers a wide range of topics not only on the camera and it's vast features and capabilities but also lenses, accessories, storage cards, flash heads and more. Whether you read it from front to back or as a reference manual to suit your needs, this book is extremely helpful to anyone that owns a 5D III. More experienced photogs can delve right into the advanced features explained while the novice will get the basics and beyond as fast as they can digest. The 5Diii is a serious investment with more features than most people are likely to use but as you learn and grow into it this book will continue to be a great reference to go back to. It's more than a manual supplement and will appeal to the owner who wants to maximize their understanding of the 5Diii's capabilities and the how's and why's of using them. ... show more

  • Great book...A valuable resource for Advanced as well as Beginners.
Format: Paperback
Best photography book I own. The only advice I would give the author would be to be more clear in the default setting section. The first part of the chapter should say that these settings are for the 3 creative settings on the camera. It is easy to believe that the default settings should be in some of the other settings like P,TV,AV, etc. This book is more comprehensive than the books for Dummies. A must have manual for owners of this wonderful camera. ... show more

  • This is a really wonderful book
I really like this book, especially on the kindle. It is easy to move around and refer to different sections. The book is very comprehensive and I love the chapters on setting all the zillions of options and setting that this camera has. I like the fact that it is so up to date, even talking about the firmware update from a few months ago. My only critique is that the index is unusable, at least on the kindle edition. It doesn't have page numbers or hot links. Otherwise brilliant! ... show more

  • Better shipping would be better.
Format: Paperback
Item was as promised, chock full of the information I needed. USPS blew the delivery, a day late and it had to be repackaged. No problem with the seller.

  • The holy grail of reference materials
Format: Paperback
I have heard so much about Daves books and after buying my 5D3 last year, I wanted to get more insight to all the ins and outs of the camera. As we all know, the manual that comes with the camera is boring, dry and doesn't give you the whys about the camera, only the whats. I tried to read through the Canon manual and it was just putting me to sleep and would not keep my interest. So I opted to get Daves books, both the main guide and the compact field guide. The book keeps me amused with Daves comedic sense of humor but more so, is extremely detailed and tells you everything you need to know on how to operate the camera and as well, why you should operate it a certain way versus what the Canon manual says. Thats the most important aspect of the book, it answers the why, how and whats. Extremely satisfied with the content of the book and highly recommend it to anyone that wants more education on your camera. ... show more

  • Pleasantly surprised.
Format: Paperback
The price was very fair and the book was listed as being in “very good” condition, but I can’t tell it from new. I’ve bought other books that WERE new that showed more signs of use than this. Totally satisfied!

  • Guide to Digital SLR Photography
Format: Paperback
As a first time full frame SLR buyer but a previous APS-C user, I could pick up the Canon 5D Mark III and use it but was not knowledgeable enough about all the features this camera had. I had previewed other books but found David Busch's book far more comprehensive. It is now forcing me to take the camera and go back through all the features step by step using his book as a handy study guide. I think we to often take the simpler approach to using a cameras automatic features and end up not making full use of all the features built into the camera. With the 5d III, you have a really powerful tool that can get so much more out of your photography. David's book provides a real helpful tool in that training. ... show more
